Hi everyone,

we are working on SEO adjustments on our forum and would appreciate your input on two points:

We’ve modified our IPB setup (php) to exclude from the sitemap any topics started by our bots. Is there a plugin that can do this automatically?
It would also be great to have the option to exclude topics based on the forum they belong to.

We’d like to customize the sitemap protocol, changing it from https to http in the XML namespace: from https to http like this : xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks in advance for any advice!

It's important for the forum to be fully compatible with Google's Search Console, so why not integrate these changes directly into the forum's core?
